I am an LA/Kauai based artist who specializes in watercolor and pastels. I am forever seeking peace and spiritual tranquility in my work, drawn from a myriad of life experiences that have etched;  people, landscapes, seascapes, animals, faces, children, and a zillion more images inspired from these memories, into my very soul. 

Working in water is like magic ~  when you finally tap a color into the invisible water marks you lay, the magic begins as you deepen darks for shadows, keeping the lights for highlights ~ letting your shadows shape your values.

You can wet the whole paper, saturate it in water and sweep colors across to let them blend and mix at will. Let the water lead you, the colors, the mixes, the forms. You can try to control them, but wet on wet has its own life. 

Of course you can then let that dry and slice a hard line on top sending your blends into the background, defining your edges to lay focus on your subject. 

There is so much diversity in watercolors, one can only be limited by one’s own imagination. But if you are open to listening to the muse, tuning into the moment, the flow of the water can lead you where your imagination is endlessly open, allowing the kind of awesome creativity that real “Art” is truly made of. The kind of Art that takes you out of yourself and frees you of all limitations. This is my goal. To allow your eyes to rest on an image that will open and inspire your imagination beyond your physical world, allowing you to relate and yet freely fly...
